Calc Ever wondered how to lose that big rock on your head ? (Meteor Strike)

Calculations
clash with a bigger rock :cat
also obligatory first meteor calc.
MC tries to stop an incoming meteor and ends up destroying it with his own.
i'll just get the KE of the meteor.
Meteor Volume

average japanese teenager height is 170.7cm
human body equals to seven and half heads.
thus his head is 22.76 cm
said head equals to 55 px
meteor length is 298px
meteor widety is 272 px
i'll assume the smaller for the other side
making:
ML=123.317818182 cm
MW=112.558545455 cm
MS=112.558545455 cm
plugging these values on this calculator we get
Meteor Volume=818052.919948014 cm^3
Kinetic Energy of the Meteor
KE=MV^2*0.5
Mass=Density*volume
meteor density of the most common meteorites is 3,4g/cm^3
M=3,4*818052.919948014
M=2781.37992782 kg
minimun impact velocity of a meteor is 11km/s according to this blog
KE=2781.37992782 *11000^2*0.5
KE=168273485633 joules
or
40.2183283 tons of tnt
so...MCB level i guess
